SEO Pricing

The first thing most companies want to know is the SEO cost. But beware of package deals for SEO services pricing — they seldom if ever work. Here is why.

The cost of SEO services varies widely because every organization has a different starting point and needs month-to-month work to improve its organic rankings. Canned SEO pricing packages do not take any of this into account.

As a result, some companies paying $2,000 a month for SEO should be paying $5,000 a month to generate increased leads or online orders.

And — some companies paying $5,000 a month for SEO only need to be paying $2,000 to get the job done.

Either way, prepackaged SEO fees work against you. Because of this, Straight North never publishes fixed pricing. Instead, we do our homework to understand what you need, and then quote SEO pricing that fits your needs exactly.
